That does not prevent future spam. Leo-j has been banned countless times, and he still pulls these stunts.

@ fkusumot

Exactly, thank you

 So what do you suggest we do. Add in some measures to restrict posting? Why stop there? How about limiting users from 5 posts per day. Because if a user can only post 5 times a day, that must mean all the posts are good, right? What about all the other users here who haven't done anything wrong and want to continue posting at whatever rate they want? One of the best things about a forum is that it allows people to freely post their opinions or whatever without a second thought. If you put in restrictions and take away that freedom, the forum will fail. I could make an analogy about Free market vs. Communism but this thing is not so serious, so I won't bother.

Yeah, I banned 4 people once it was actually reported.

The moral of the story is that if your not willing to report something, you shouldn't expect the mods to magically know about it. Although that would be cool...






Magic is cool

the overall mod system that needs a complete overhaul. At the moment if neos or ferret or someone else spams 100 new game additions to the database the result that any reported threads is jammed in the middle of the 100 games and we can only see the first like 15 of the list at any one given time and having to click each gamer to accept them takes forever.

Who were the 4 people that got banned?

 yes - too many restrictions would ruin the forums

The 60-scond time limit dtewi suggested would work fine against spam.

It should be more like 30 seconds, 60 is to much.

Not restrictions, but revisions. Not a post count, but a minimum character limit before posting to stop the lol and :) and all of that. Then a thirty second wait inbetween posts, so that people can't post thirteen pages (750 posts) of the same thing in five to ten minutes see this http://www.vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?id=14065&start=700#end
